US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have witnessed a surge in daily net inflows, reaching a remarkable milestone in the cryptocurrency investment. With a net influx of $886.75 million, these ETFs have marked the second-highest single-day inflow since their inception, closely trailing behind the peak observed on March 12, which amounted to $1.05 billion.
This substantial inflow indicates growing investor interest in Bitcoin as an asset class, particularly through regulated investment vehicles like ETFs. According to SoSoValue data, Fidelity’s FBTC and BlackRock’s IBIT emerged as prominent contributors to Tuesday’s inflows, with respective net additions of $379 million and $274 million.
Consistent Positive Trend Continues
The consistent inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs reflect a sustained positive trend in investor sentiment toward cryptocurrency investments. This influx marks the 16th consecutive day of net inflows for the 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs, underscoring a prolonged period of investor confidence in the asset class.
Notable participation from renowned investment firms such as Ark Invest and 21Shares, with inflows of $139 million into ARKB, further exemplifies the growing institutional adoption of Bitcoin as a legitimate investment avenue.
Cumulative Inflows and Market Dynamics
The cumulative total net inflows for spot Bitcoin ETFs have now reached an impressive $14.85 billion, demonstrating the substantial capital inflow into this segment of the cryptocurrency market. However, despite the recent surge in inflows, the total flow volume in ETFs remains below the peak in March.
Grayscale’s GBTC, a notable player in the cryptocurrency investment, attracted $28 million in inflows, marking its third-largest net inflow since its conversion. Meanwhile, VanEck and Valkyrie’s ETFs also observed single-digit net inflows, contributing to the overall positive sentiment in the market.
Bitcoin Price Movement
Parallel with the influx of capital into Bitcoin ETFs, Bitcoin’s value experienced a notable uptick, briefly surpassing $71,000 before settling around $70,800 at the time of reporting. This price movement reflects Bitcoin’s continued interest and confidence among investors, further solidifying its position as a leading digital asset in the global financial landscape.
